I’m very sorry for your loss and that was a very beautiful tribute. I agree 10 years is a wonderful old age for a rabbit, although of course it’s never long enough.

(((Binky free George)))

Agreed! Grid panels are awesome for blocking off areas. I use a combo of pet gates and grid panels to keep my buns where they’re supposed to be when they are free-roaming while we’re home and awake, and then they get locked into pens (also made out of grid panels) when they aren’t supervised or if we need them to be safely tucked away for any reason.

I’m very sorry you lost George. He was a beautiful rabbit. 10 years is a long rabbit life and it seems he was only ill for a short time, which is a blessing. I’m glad you got to be with him when he left for the Rainbow Bridge.

Your tribute to him is beautiful. He was very lucky to have you as his human. I cried…[Read more]

I have made a YouTube video to honor George https://youtu.be/SdwXfsZtlNE?feature=shared

I speak about my time with him. Thank you

I know you feel bad. Especially when they throw a tantrum realizing they aren’t going to get what they want anymore. But it is for the best, it really is! I use grid panels to keep my bunny out of certain areas and he’s not allowed in certain rooms at all. I don’t want to think about what he might do if he were to get under my bed, for…[Read more]

Thank God! You can’t imagine the number of times where I’d thought I was the worst pet owner in the world.

Will definitely be putting my foot down from now. Unless he puts his down first. Then he gets what he wants… (kidding)

I will make note of that, thank you! I definitely was hesitant to quarantine them if I can’t keep an eye on them because I feel bad, but no more! The devil works hard but Lewis is always working harder…

I do get down on myself whenever I lose my cool… I lectured the kid as if to him it isn’t gibberish and noises. At the end of the day, I guess t…[Read more]

Thanks for this I really need to hear it from somebody else… and you’re right about the truth in between. I definitely will keep that in mind next time instead of spiraling (and we know there will be a next time…). Cheers! 💕

I think we can all relate! I do agree with Dana though. Sometimes structure is a good thing.

Honestly, I think that may be the best option. I’m sure the other bun will find a good home. I would just let the foster know that he really isn’t settling down and you don’t think it will be a good pairing.

It is impossible to predict how a bun will react towards another bun, which is why speed dating is so valuable.

For your reference, when I…[Read more]

<p class=”p1″>Thank you for taking the time to respond. I truly do not blame the foster for “letting” the adoption happen, but I my mistake was putting too much weight into the answer about whether she thought this would work out between the two buns. 🙁 I thought that she saw potential that we weren’t able to since we are first time bunny owner…[Read more]

Ah the joys of pet ownership! Some of them really seem to love to try to off themselves! I currently have a cat with food allergies that tries her hardest to steal food any chance she gets… she was eating mouthfuls of pancake batter when I turned my back for ONE SECOND. lol. we laugh so we don’t cry of course.

You are certainly welcome to…[Read more]

Hi Lisa, welcome to Binky Bunny! This is a very old thread, and we ask members not to revive super old threads as it creates confusion. It would be best to start your own thread to ask your question! Do do that, go to the section you want to post in and click the “Create Topic” Button.

I’m going to lock this thread now to avoid confusion.

I too am perplexed as to why you would bring her home after such a bad speed date. In my mind, the purpose of the speed date is to make sure the buns do not hate each other, and it appears that your bun does NOT like this female.

There are of course things we can try, but I have to ask, is it possible to return her and try another rabbit? This…[Read more]

Hello! Welcome to the forum!

You’re very welcome to vent!

And yes, life with rabbits often is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. They are so fragile and yet so resilient in many ways.
<p style=”text-align: left;”>Your bun seems to be a very adventurous little boy! That’s extremely charming of course, and it means he leads an interesting and probably very fulfilling bunny…[Read more]

Thank you for the update! I’m happy to hear that he’s doing so well now!
